... and Yukari Baba are locks, but I'm unsure who the other 4 will be. Akiko Fukushima, Yuko Saitoh, Miki Saiki, and Uehara, as the money list would suggest? Or will Mika-chan get an LPGA bye and knock out 1 of them? Or will some of these players be unable to compete that week and new ones step up, like Rui Kitada, Erina Hara, Akane Iijima, Rikako Morita, Hiromi Mogi, Maiko Wakabayashi,...

... into a tied at -5 (T22) with Kyeong Bae (68), Li Ying Ye (68), Yukari Baba (69), Miho Koga (70), Miki Saiki (70), and Nobuko Kizawa (72). Jimin Kang birdied 3 of her 1st 4 holes on the back, then made the turn with an eagle and birdie to start the front, but her 66 was only enough to move her into a tie for 44th at -2. Let's put it this way: with 16 68s and 16 69s going up on the...

35 of the JLPGA's finest tee it up tomorrow in the Mizuno Classic , looking to follow in Momoko Ueda's footsteps and get LPGA membership without going through Q-School. Yuko Mitsuka , currently 5th on the JLPGA money list , still has a chance to break into the 100 Million Yen Club in season winnings; a win this week would save her a trip to Florida in December. Miki Saiki , who failed...

... Fudoh, Akiko Fukushima, Miho Koga, and Ji-Hee Lee to Yuko Mitsuka, Bo-Bae Song, Ayako Uehara, and Miki Saiki, and beyond. It's a shame that of them all, only Mitsuka will be trying out LPGA Q-School in December. We'll find out earlier in the week of the Mizuno which LPGA and KLPGA players will have decided to try to qualify for JLPGA. The latter number (taking into account those exempt...

... by doubling the par-3 14th to fall out of a tie with Fukushima. Perhaps they can take heart from Miki Saiki, who tripled the 2nd hole, bounced back with a birdie on the next, and added 5 others over her next 10 holes--but they'll have to avoid imitating her bogey on the treacherous par-3 17th (which dropped her back to a 70 on the day and a -3 overall finish) if they want to walk...

As the leaders enter the final back 9 in the Fujitsu Ladies , Ai Miyazato sits 2 shots behind Miki Saiki (-10) and 1 shot behind Yukari Baba, Nikki Campbell, and Akane Iijima (-9). Saiki and Iijima had leapfrogged Miyazato with 2nd-round 65s , while Baba's 2nd-straight 68 had put her 1 behind them and 2 ahead of Campbell and Ai-sama, who had shot their own matching 69s to the 1st...

... Chie Arimura, Nikki Campbell, and Tamie Durdin. Only 2 off the pace are Shinobu Moromizato and Miki Saiki, while Miho Koga is 3 back and Sakura Yokomine trails by 4. With 24 players going under par, 34 shooting par or better, and 49 within 5 shots of the lead, however, this is still anyone's tournament. Here's how the top 10 and notables stand heading into the weekend: T1/-4 Yukari...
